Folks,
Just now i called up USCIS (1-800-375-5283 Option 1,2,2,6,2,2,1) since my App was mailed more than 4 weeks.
The lady who picked up was nice enough to explain me the revised ETA for receipting from 4 weeks to 60 Calendar days. She also said that they generally receipts in 2 weeks (not even 4 weeks) but because of this rush that ETA is set to 60 days. She appreciated all of our anxiety and re-assured me that i dont have to call after 60 days because the receipt will be definitely with me ( if everything is filed correctly as per rules )
One thing i found funny - she explained me that this Rush is just for avoiding the 'Fee Increase' - She has no idea about the Retrogression and stuffs like that :)
Good luck guys - chat with you after another 29 days !!
The comment about the "Fee Increase" might be partially true. There is surely a surge in number of application for Naturalization, to avoid the few increase... Atleast I know a couple of friends who applied for citizenship....

How about anyone with a US Masters no matter if it was obtained before filing the GC or just last month? Almost everyone I know has got some US masters in the meantime over the past 5-7 years. The queue will not move if the provision just includes a degree. In fact a lot of EB3 India would benefit since most of us got a masters in the meantime even if it was something like some MBA or information systems management.
Sure the queue will be shorter if people with masters got a GC just as it will be if all spillover goes to the most waiting applicant first, not to mention it will be fairer.
So essentially this talk about US masters is just a self-serving way to jump the queue. There is no crab mentality here. Just trying push ones own importance using any pretext whatsoever.

Folks,
Not sure if this is a good idea, 1. Either to put a English note on How chinese is affected because of EB Visa Retrogression ? and pass the website and email id to join ?
Or get a person to translate it into Chinese and put it up in Ranch 99 - Milpitas, berkley, Fremont, Sanjose ? Ranch 99 is a popular place among chinese network to buy vegetables and well networked among chinese !
I am assuming there must be similar network of Chinese Shops in other cities !. I am going to ask students from china to post it in their internal mail aliases for wide coverage !
Some thoughts on this ? ALSO _ Indians perhaps can talk to Silicon india, then other Bay Area local newspapers to publish it ? - Put it up in Komala Vilas, Udupi, etc ?

In Dallas (Las Collinas), if you dont have medical insurance, you can have an arrangement with the Doctor and Hospital.
Like one of my friend paid 3K for everything for Delivery + 5K I think for the hospitals. Ofcourse this is based on the delivery is not complicated / C-section couple of years ago.
Hope this helps.
To every one, thanks to one and all.
Here are my results, that I came out after one day research
************ Los Colinos Medical Center (Dallas Texas)
***********Regular*************C section
Dr *********4000***************4500
Hospital******3850***************5800
Anesthesio ***0000***************1000 (approx)
Total Exp ****7850***************11300
************Richardson Medical Center (Dallas Texas - Richardson)
************ Regular***************C section
Dr Fees ******2800***************3500
Hospital******4400***************6400
Anesthesio****0000***************1000 (approx)
Total ********7200***************10900
Total expenses if you pay by cash and this has to be paid before hand.
There was one more option i.e parkland systems in dallas area. But for that you to personally go to them and they asses your pay for the family and only then they will let you know the cost. I beleive it would be around the same or may be around 8000 dollars.

Per AC 21, it is soft quota - if you think about it, it is pretty simple.
In EB1, every country has 7% quota. Anything unused in EB1 ROW first goes to EB1 India and China. After that, the remaining number (say 4000) should flow to EB2. In EB2, every country has same 7% quota. Let us say 2000 is left unused. So, in all, 6000 extra visas should flow to anyone in EB2 category based on Pri dates.

If the sale takes place, it probably will be bought by either a Chinese or Indian company. Some dumb anti-immigrationists will try to block legal migration every possible way when most of their companies are either taking jobs overseas or getting sold to foreign companies. Go and find the source of what has destroyed the economy and try to fix it. No foreigner has ruined the economy.
I agree. They just blame Indians for everything they fail.

realized late that he had the expiry date wrong in his mind. So he has applied and it is > 100 days. They moved the already CPO date from Oct 10 to 29th, stating "lack of printable cards" (learned through info pass).
Imagine he is sitting at home, not working for > 3 months because he did not keep track of his expiry dates.
Because of one negligence, he is losing a lot of salary by not working. :(
The current EAD delays is certainly scary. Hope it is an exception not the norm.:mad:

you 're right...so may what shivap80 is saying is correct also...
if your i-485 comes up for adjudication and you have file ac21 and your i-140 is pending as well, then the portability is only valid if i-140 is approved. of course after that to make sure that the portability is valid they will apply the "similar job" criteria.
You are interpreting as: It must be approved when in reality it means that It should have been already approved in order to make a decision on portability. They can not be forced to approve your I-140 just because you are changing jobs.

because of the abuse of H1 & L1 by these companies, people who have actual job offers in U.S are not able to apply for H1b. These companies do a kind of visa gouging wherein, they get H1b approved and stamped for all the people they have on payroll in their offshore centers whether they are needed here or not and then, send them when they projects. This is nothing but visa gouging by this companies and abuse of the intent of H1 & L1. Although the bill has gone too far and tried to penalize everybody but instead it should look at stopping the visa gouging

Well my friend, don't bring your pretentious "I'm-so-great-I'm-non-judgemental-oo-la-la" BS here. If we don't make it clear in our replies that we do not condone any actions that break the law, we are just making it easier for anti-immigration people to easily point fingers at us and claim we are all drug peddlers or criminal.
I would urge more members here to reply to the OP that we at IV do not have any sympathy for people breaking the law.
As for you 24fps, think before you type!
I think its pretty immature for members to draw moral judgments and post those remarks here, all thats required is to tell the OP that this forum is for redressing Legal immigrant based issue (primarily dealing with the Green-Card delays etc), to tell the OP to take her "sob story" or " not being sorry" and pulling up moral judgments is just plan immature, period.

Completely baseless and irresponsible statement from Mr. Gotcher!!!
He contradicts his own statements:
"If these statements are true, then the end of the current mess is in sight.
If the CIS really has wiped out its processing backlog, then when the "pre-adjudicated" cases are given visa numbers in the next fiscal year, cutoff dates should advance rapidly. At a minimum, we should see them return to February 2007 levels, if not closer."
CONTRADICTS:
" EB2 China and India: Outlook is "grim" and there may be further retrogressions until later in the fiscal year."
On what basis he thinks that EB3 India will have PD in 2001 but EB2 India will further retrogress (currently it is stuck in 1999):
"EB2 China and India: Outlook is "grim" and there may be further retrogressions until later in the fiscal year.
EB3 India: November 1, 2001"
AND THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS REMARK IS FOR CIR: Look at this:
"Of course, all of this becomes academic if CIR is passed. In that case, all priority dates will become "current" overnight and remain that way for years."
Yeah...right...this is same Mr. Gotcher who predicted that "if you do "consular processing" you will get your GC very soon as USCIS does not process cases"....Look what happened...
First of all he mentioned that 500k app in 2007 and then USCIS used 280k in 07 and 08. so 220k remaining. Dont forget that they opened gate till 2006 where so many people who got their labor cleared from backlog centers in 2007 ( Sep , after july 2007 thing ) applied.
So I would say out of 500k it didnot reduce 2 years but only 1 year ... so total left are 360k - 140k ( 2009 ) = 220k remaining. Now that they have pre adjucted 110k so 110k left. If they stop accepting new app for next 2 years then they can clear all mess in 2 years but law prevent them to do so...... so end of mess for ROW contries is near ( with improved USCIS process )... but for India out look is grim as law prevent india to get more than 3k if there is more demand from ROW and Eb4 and Eb5.
also If CIR passes and they add recapture then it will make dates current becasue those visa go on oldest app first. ( God knows who is oldest here ) but given that india has lot more app pending in back those recapture can clean lots of indian backlog while new supply keep going to ROW countries.
To me the bottom line is " VISA RECAPTURE " either law suit way or congress through.............. other than pack ur bag and head to wards home.... ( specially people like us who didnot file AOS and very tough to be on h1b after 6th year is over ) ..
